Proceeding contribution from Lord Roberts of Conwy (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 10 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Transport (Wales) Bill.


Transport (Wales) Bill

My Lords, I add my tribute to Lord Merlyn-Rees, whose political skills I admired over the years. When he was Secretary of State for Northern Ireland and then Home Secretary, he was a very kindly as well as a clever man, as one would expect a fellow Welshman, born in Cilfynydd, to be. I am sure that his passing out of our lives is a very grievous loss to us all.
